Sense and Sensibility Chapters 49-50

THE FINAL BOOK EPISODE OF SEASON 2! In which Molly sheds REAL TEARS.

Edward and Elinor get married, we learn how Lucy seduced Robert and screwed over Anne, and the Ferrarses are FINE. We discuss the pros and cons of the end of Marianne's story, and Becca finally convinces Molly to ship Brandianne.

Study Questions: Topics discussed include Lucy as a political mastermind, Willoughby's capacity for love, the end of the Ferrari, Colonel Brandon and Marianne, and what makes this ending so happy.

Funniest quote: "And to what purpose that freedom would be employed was easily pre-determined by all;—for after experiencing the blessings of one imprudent engagement, contracted without his mother’s consent, as he had already done for more than four years, nothing less could be expected of him in the failure of that, than the immediate contraction of another."

Questions for the movie: Who are they going to cut?

Who wins the book? Elinor AND Marianne <3
